In RPG, is there a way to refer to a field in a file by its relative
position in the file?

E.g. File with 10 fields use array element FIELD(5) to get to 5th
field.

I have a file with 53 weekly buckets for a number of different pieces of
information(sales, cost, rebates, etc) so there are > 300 fields.



I know I can define an array in the I specs and list the fields one at a
time but is there any other mechanism I can use that would allow me to
access the fields in the order they exist in the file(using array like
syntax). Maybe a Data structure or SQL?



Any thoughts would be appreciated



Thanks,

Mike
